Asvinth Saravanan - PeerSpot reviewer
Has limited functionality, logging uses extensive resources; automation replay is great
This solution is not very user-friendly and I would not recommend it for robotic platforms. It has limited functionality and the logging takes over 1,000 GB. As a result, each year we need to increase the size of the database and create a workaround by archiving logs. It impacts performance and is a significant pain point for us. The logging is not user-friendly from an architect's perspective. The reporting is a mess in INTELLIBOT, even the developers are struggling to identify the issues and there are also problems when there are two cases hitting the queue.
Hugo Almeida - PeerSpot reviewer
It lets us automate almost anything and is very easy to work with
It currently supports only on-premises deployments. They can include support for cloud deployments. It should provide us the ability to choose a robot for executing a workflow. We want to control which robot executes a certain workflow. Right now, it automatically chooses the robot that is going to execute our workflow. It should also provide the ability to get filters on the outputs of the steps. We have each workflow as a step, and each step has some output. We would like to have the functionality to execute some script or some logic on these outputs to format the tests directly on the variables.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I have found the most valuable feature to be the straightforward visual editor, it has close to no code required. It allowed us to deploy the email monitoring in this couple of weeks."
"It is a stable product. We have been using it for 15 months now, and there have been no issues."
"This solution is easy to use and requires little coding knowledge."
"There's a helpful community available through the portal."
"The replay of the automation is an awesome feature."
"For machine learning, there is an in-built document and text classification feature in INTELLIBOT. That is unlike other RPA tools where one needs to procure a separate license. Besides this, the application is easy to use. One valuable feature is the drag-and-drop feature for AI and email intelligence. It is easier than using UiPath's IQ bot."
"The return on investment is pretty good because the license cost is cheaper than other RPA tools in the market."
"It lets us automate almost anything, even with the legacy tools. It is very easy for us now to automate with legacy tools, which used to be difficult earlier. We work with a lot of other automation tools from Micro Focus, such as Operation Orchestration, but these tools can only connect to the API. So, there was a gap when we wanted to automate older and legacy tools that didn't have any API to connect to. We can now also automate without any changes in the customer environment. We don't need to change anything in the way that the customer environment works."
 

Cons

"A couple of times, we noticed that some bugs caused the bot to go in the wrong flow."
"The first pain point of INTELLIBOT was with the development. Whenever the company developed any command, they published it directly onto their SQL site, and our current automation got auto-updated. The second pain point was with the action set. It could be stronger. Moreover, if I am doing UiPath automation, I have to do it with the Internal Report for now."
"Has limited functionality and uses extensive resources."
"Currently, there are not many documents available on Google that explain each activity and how to use it or how to use the parameters and pass values."
"I would like to see the cognitive marketing platform improved."
"The solution is heavily dependant on scripts, such as JavaScript or any other external script that needs to be a part of the system. If they want to grow, the scripting dependency should go away. They should have built-in libraries to pull in work from."
"The trigger actions need to be more robust."
"It currently supports only on-premises deployments. They can include support for cloud deployments. It should provide us the ability to choose a robot for executing a workflow. We want to control which robot executes a certain workflow. Right now, it automatically chooses the robot that is going to execute our workflow. It should also provide the ability to get filters on the outputs of the steps. We have each workflow as a step, and each step has some output. We would like to have the functionality to execute some script or some logic on these outputs to format the tests directly on the variables."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"INTELLIBOT with the DPA costs approximately $1,500 USD."
"The solution requires a license and we purchased one annually. We were satisfied with the price."
"At the time, one license was $5,000 USD. If we needed to negotiate for more licenses, we could negotiate a bit on the price."
"It is quite cheap. In the year 2019, it was $1000 for a year."
"The pricing model is very straightforward. You can have a one-year or three-year subscription. You pay for each robot that you want to use simultaneously. If you want, you can install 50 robots and get 50 licenses. If you want to use only one robot at a time, you just need one license. For each license, you pay around 10% or 15% to support. You pay for the license, and you pay a small percentage of the cost of the license for support. This is their licensing model, which is very easy to understand."
